Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.1) Gecko/20010607 BuildID: 2001060703 I have a PAC file in my environment. That is, a javaScript file that browsers download periodically and that it's used to "analize" each URL introduced in order to select a proxy. It runs fine. But if the proxy selected by the PAC script doesn't answer (for example, it's down), mozilla shows an error instead the correct approach documented in the PAC documentation from Netscape: fallback to a direct connection for, for example, the next 15 minutes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Use a PAC script (autoconfiguration proxy) 2.kill the proxy server 3.try any URL
Please post the PAC file here. This is a known issue, but I would like to have your file in case you have a different version of the same problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 84798 ***
